"You boy!"
"Me, mister?"
"Yes you young sir. What day is this?"
"Why 'tis St Choosinator's Day, sir.
"Splendid! St Choosinator's Day! Then I am not too late! Boy, take this shiney sixpence to the nearest independent bookshop and buy something absolutely impenetrable from the Booker shortlist."
"Sir?"
"And a goose. From Waitrose. Quick about it now."

It was always henceforth said of him, that he knew how to keep St Choosinator's Day well, if any man alive possessed the knowledge. May that be truly said of us, and all of us! And so, as Dan Brown observed, God bless Us, Every One!

I haven’t actually read the book. Embarrassed to admit that. Know the story but will have to read it. Is it possible to get a copy on a kindle?

I tried buying Ebanana Scrooge, but he had sold out in Aldi... I suppose Marcus Radishford doesn't feature in a Christmas Carol...
